The man on the left wears a brown hat, black jacket with gold buttons, white pants, and black shoes. He holds a horn-like object to his mouth with his right hand and has a pouch attached to his belt on the left. The woman on the right has dark hair styled in an updo with a decorative pin, and wears a red kimono with a blue lining and gold accents, along with black and white geta sandals. A black text box with white Japanese characters is positioned above and behind the woman's head. Three small Japanese text boxes are placed at the bottom left corner of the print. A color gradient ruler is visible on the right side of the image.
